Sailors used to speak of a “Jack”when they meant a flag which was set near the bow of a sailing ship. The flag showed the country to which the ship belonged. The Union Jack became the flag of Great Britain. Australia's flag has the Union Jack in the top left hand corner together with the stars of the Southern Cross. They have kept this small part of Britain on their flag because their country was first settled by people from Britain.
Australia's flag is the same color as the Union Jack--red, white and blue. The act of joining together is called a“ Union”. The Union Jack was the name of the flag made when England, Scotland and Ireland joined together to make one country.
It all began in 1707 when England and Scotland joined together to become one nation. A flag was made using two crosses--one for the patron saint of each country. The word “patron” means protector. Many centuries before the English had taken St George as their patron saint, his emblem (標志 ) was a red cross on a white background. The Scottish patron saint was St Andrew. In memory of him, they used a white cross on a blue background. This cross was shaped like the letter “X”. The new flag was a mixture of both flags with two sets of crosses. When Ireland joined England and Scotland in 1800,another cross was added. St Patrich's cross of Ireland was red and also shaped like an “X”. All three flags now made up the Union Jack.
(1)The Union Jack is a kind of ________ and contains
[ ]
A. flag; three crosses
B. ship; four crosses
C. flag; two crosses
D. ship; three crosses
(2)How many crosses were there in the flag before Ireland joined England and Scotland?
[ ]
(3)Why does Australia have the Union Jack in its flag?
[ ]
A. Because Australians respect the English.
B. Because the Union Jack is colorful.
C. Because people from Britain settled in Australia first.
D. Because people from Britain brought the Union Jack to Australia.
(4)Which of the following is not true?
[ ]
A. The emblem (象征) of the English was a red cross on a white background.
B. The Scottish used a white cross on a blue background in memory of St Andrew.
C. Australia's flag is the same color as the Union Jack.
D. The Irish used a red cross on a blue background in memory of St George.
(5)The colors of the flag of Great Britain now are ________.
[ ]
A. red, black and blue
B. white, yellow and blue

Once an Englishman named Jack Brown went to Russia for a holiday. He stayed there for several months and then came home again. Some of his friends visited him a few days after he got back. “I had a very dangerous trip while I was in Russia.” Jack said to them. “I wanted to see a friend of mine in the country and the bad weather made me very late. So I was still travelling through a forest in sleigh<雪橇>when the sun went down. It was a long way from my friend’s house when about 20 wolves began to follow my sleigh. It was very dark in the forest. There was thick snow on the ground. It was cold, and there were no houses for miles and miles. First I heard the wolves, and the noise was terrible! The horses heard them, too. They were frightened and began running faster. Then I saw long, grey forms among the trees, and soon the wolves were near us. They were running very fast, and they didn’t seem to get tired like the horses.” “What did you do?” one of his friends asked. “When the wolves got very near,” Jack answered, “I put up my gun and shot the first wolf. The sleigh was moving about, but I hit the animal and killed it. Then all the other wolves stopped and ate it, so our sleigh got away from them for a few minutes.” “Then they finished their meal, and I heard them coming again. The moon was shining brightly on the snow, and after a few minutes I saw them among the trees once more. They came nearer again, and then I shot another of them, and the others stopped once more to eat it.” “The same thing happened again and again, and my horses became more and more tired and ran slower and slower until, after about two hours, only one wolf was still alive and following us.”
“Wasn’t it too fat to run?” one of his friends asked.
Jack told his friends what happened to him when he was______________.
A. in England one winter evening B. in Russia one winter evening
C. in America one winter morning D. in Russia one winter morning.

A. the food Jack had brought with him B. the meal prepared by Jack’s friends.
C. the wolf which had been killed by Jack D. the dead animals on the way
According to what Jack said, the last wolf ______________.
A. had eaten up all the other wolves
B. ran much faster than the other wolves
C. was the strongest of all D. was very fat and didn’t run fast.
From what Jack’s friend said we know that _____________________.
